Hispanic Ministry Emphasis

Description

In collaboration with the Instituto Hispano at the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University at Berkeley, Santa Clara University offers an online Masters degree in Pastoral Ministry with an emphasis in Hispanic Ministry. During the academic year courses are taught in English through a combination of face-to-face, video conferencing and online experiences. We believe that training in ministry is a personal journey that must involve personal interaction. All of our courses, therefore, provide at least live video conferencing with the professor and other students, and, whenever possible, visits to diocesan sites by the professor.

Academic year courses in English are complemented by three summer courses in Spanish with a residency component through the Instituto Hispano. The Instituto consists of three two-week intensive, Spanish-language ministry programs. Credit towards the GPPM degree will be earned through participation in the Instituto and enrollment in an online course linked to the Instituto.
